DJI proposing "electronic license plates" for drones

It’s also not clear how far their rule-attempts go.

While “everyone knows” that they mean hobby drones have to be registered, they don’t define what they mean. The registration rule could also apply to anything in the air over 0.55 lbs: kites, all kinds of model aircraft including gliders, honking big paper airplanes, model rockets…

Vague rules are fine so long as they’re applied with common sense, but there’s always some a-hat in authority who will apply them the way they want to.
